The purpose of BIC 2010

Fri, 07 May 2010 11:36:23 -0400

1. Find ways to join like-hearted organizations together (more than just talking nicely about each other) to accomplish projects without becoming territorial

2. Discuss how to effectively use media in missions to:

tell compelling stories
stir people to action/giving
keep people’s attention on areas of need even after it’s out of the public eye

3. Pitch a specific project we can all use as a test run (example: Last of the Least / Joshua’s Village in Haiti)

4. Develop an annual gathering specifically geared toward impacting the world (locally, regionally, internationally)

It's been decided.

It will be a one day event. Bringing together the select few who are known for their actions and not just their ideas. The point of the one day, to bring like minded people together and collaborate. It’s not to take another’s idea. It’s not to compare who’s raised the most money. It’s to sit down in the same room and see how we can move forward together. If you are invited, it’s because we respect and admire your heart for Haiti, knowing you are serious about making a long term commitment.

Partnerships: Making it happen

Once Trey started sharing the vision with a few other like minded individuals, it became apparent this idea would work! Partnering with SafewaterNexus and itsChance, the vision for BIC2010 has been elaborated upon and the wheels have started to turn!! Our next goal is to choose a date, create an outline for the day and form a guest list!

Be expecting more details soon!

The First Step

Sun, 04 Apr 2010 06:48:00 -0400

Recently Trey McAlister, with RU4Children, has started to pursue a passion to not only help Haiti but collectively bring those with the same heart, together. Believing that if we were all on the same page, we would be able to better pursue our goals, BIC2010 has been created to bring a select few people together to collaborate and better assist a country in need!

To start pursuing this dream, a tumblr account was created and we are beginning to plan. If you would like to be kept up to date with what’s happening, please contact Garrett Bonnette.
